Thrust by the assassination of John Kennedy into the office he always wanted, Lyndon Johnson manipulates, seduces, and strong arms senators into ending legal segregation and waging war on poverty. But in an effort to protect himself from charges of weakness that could be used to block his domestic programs, Johnson escalates U.S. involvement in Vietnam into a full-scale war, which costs him his funding, his prestige, his power, his people, and his dreams for creating The Great Society.
